Fourth, if you're running out of MP, you should try conserving it. Or boosting it. Increase your Mind. Or use food. Or use ethers. Or use Stygian Spikes. Or maybe use Cure 1?
Yes. No more unlimited supply of MP. It's more challenging now. Lots of people think that's a good thing.
You're supposed to play smarter. A higher degree of challenge rewards skillful play. You should try to get better so you don't have to keep fighting lower level mobs.
I don't understand this. Are you suggesting that Thunder II should have been increased, too? I thought you were against increased MP costs.
This doesn't make any sense. They're not punishing you for combining classes. They're rewarding you because you can use abilities from other classes. You can cure yourself as an Arc. That's a reward. You just can't spam Cures forever.
